Thomas & Thomas Exocett Surf Rods

Fishing in the surf presents some unique opportunities and challenges for the fly angler. Wind and waves make it difficult to handle line and achieve maximum casting distance. Thats why T&T has built a pair of rods to make it more effective and enjoyable to fly fish in the surf. Exocett Surf rods are a pair of specialized 112 rods intended to cast overhead with two hands. The powerful multi-modulus Strato-Therm blank has a crisp action that excels in casting overweight shooting heads and compact integrated fly lines past the breakers. An elongated full wells upper grip and rounded spey style lower grip makes for a comfortable and powerful overhead casting stroke while throwing Outbound or similar style shooting heads.

These rods are built with a two hand grip and taper to pick up 25-40 foot shooting heads and launch them into the surf. These are very effective tools for that purpose, and the 10wt is perfect for what people do in the northeast salt.
